Alter Physical Structure: Toon

Alter Physical Structure: Toon (Major) by Stone Gargoyle

"I don't want to end up a cartoon in a cartoon graveyard."

The character with this power taps into another dimension to use cartoon physics to his advantage.

1. Cartoon Violence and Physics: None of the Toon's attack damage is permanent, disappearing in 1d6 rounds following the character's attack. If an opponent should "die" from the attach, his essence/spirit wil take cartoon form, complete with angel wings and harp, unable to leave the area of its body; once the Toon character is out of range, the opponent will be magically resurrected, but by that time hopefully the cops will have arrived. Also, by drawing an exit on a wall the player can escape, as humans cannot use this. Drawing a landscape creates a temporary pocket dimension for the Toon to walk up into.

2. Increased SDC and Regeneration: The Toon character's body is resilient, having natural AR(12, or at GM's discretion) and increased SDC(set at a flat 350). The Toon character has no hit points in Toon form. Further, the character can quickly regenerate damage, popping bullets back out and puling himself back together if cut in half or retrieving body parts that have been pulled off. They can be reattached only if severed parts are rejoined to the body within an hour. It takes only one melee round for the inky substance of the Toon body to close wounds. As long as the character SDC is greater than his hit points in human form the character can turn back to normal. If the character dies in Toon form, he stays a Toon but is drawn into the Toon universe.

3. Contortionist: The character goes beyond double-jointedness, as he has no bones; gets the escape artist skill automatically at a base of 90%. The Toon character can be smashed flat and still pop back, though he might appear accordion-like and have stars or birdies circling his head. This gives a bonus of 20% to gymnastics, acrobatics and other skills requiring flexibility.

4. Impervious to explosives: The Toon character takes no damage from explosives, though they do darken his clothing for 2 melees.

5. Flatten Self: The character can become flat to slip under doors or flatten against walls, adding 20% to the prowl ability.

6. Sonic Speed: The character can only use this twice per day and only for the purpose of running through a wall or walls, leaving a broken outline, when escaping a failed save from Horror Factor, usually following popped out eyeballs and hair standing on end. If unable to use this power following said failed save, the character will use Temporary Death instead.

7. Temporary Death: If the Toon character is hit by a critical strike, regardless of the damage, or ha fails a save vs. Horror Factor, the character can feign death. This involves sticking out his tongue in a sickly manner, having his eyes turn to "(X)(X)", and clasping his heart( a daisy appearing out of nowhere), then collapsing. A cartoony angel will fly out of him and look around before flying back into the character after one full melee round. The character is immune to any attack while this sequence plays out.
The character can also choose to use this as an escape by making the ground open up and then bury him, a tombstone popping up. Instead of having the angel come back to him, the angel flies off and transforms back to the character's human form. In this case, the character is prone to attack in Toon angel form, which flies at a slow 15mph.

8. Other Abilities and Bonuses:

Physical strength is Extraordinary in Toon form

The character's weight is a fifth of what it is as a human.

Radiates no heat in Toon form, thus cannot be detected by infrared or heat sensors.

Awe Factor: 5(12 among small children)

9. Limitations and Penalties:

The character takes twice damage from acid and the damage cannot be regenerated as a Toon. The character is also vulnerable to erasers and can be captured by being sucked into a pen.

Relationship Snag: Sex with a human while in Toon form will cause the two universes to merge and everyone to turn into Toons.
